Our Manual Handpack Systems are designed to provide packaging personnel an ergonomic work area for packing product into corrugated boxes.  These stations accept pre-erected boxes, often supplied from a case erector unit.  Workstation is equipped with an infeed conveyor to present product to packing personnel as well as a take-away conveyor for completed cases.  As with every one of our equipment pieces, we put safety and sanitization at the forefront of our design, installation, and implementation.  Our Manual Handpack Systems are manufactured of stainless steel construction which can withstand high-pressure washes and products needed for cleaning and decontamination.

Our standard systems include several high-quality products, including:

• Allen Bradley Controls

Many Manual Handpack Systems can be combined with other product offerings.  For instance, a workstation area for packing product into corrugated boxes could provide pre-built boxes supplied by a box erector on a conveyor system to speed the process as much as possible. Completed boxes exiting the system could then also be carried away through a separate conveyor system to the next step of your manufacturing process.  Upstream we offer tray denesting equipment to decrease the manpower needed to complete the project.  In addition, we offer many other beginning & end of line solutions such as case checkweighers, rejects, case labeling, case sealing equipment, palletizing systems, etc.  

With adequate information regarding your needs, we can help customize Manual Handpack Systems and other product offerings to ensure you get the highest possible efficiency with the lowest amount of risk.
